Possession must have been 80/20 in our favour, all of which makes it the more irritating that we couldn't muster a goal. Mons hit the post in stoppage time, we cleared off your line earlier on.:rolleyes:Quote:

2nd half Harps were the better side, if we had a decent striker on we might have got something out of that game, thats with: Parkhouse, Sheilds, Minnock, Labonte and Gallagher all out. We started with Malcom in centre half who was carrying an injury, Beckett up front (ballbag can go back to Derry, injured AGAIN) and Mukendi along with Ramsey on the bench (both of which have not trained due to injury)
Joxer!?! .......one successful pass in the first half - you're right about Rossi though, and Brennan never tacklesQuote:
Oman is half the player he was last season but Joxer and Rossi are both class acts, Rossi was best player Bohs had tonight. Killian Brennan must be the most yellow professional player of all time, never put in one tackle.
The two Harps oul' lads beside me on that touchline abused the lino for the rest of the half, if its any consolation - you're right, Fenn did handle........ what can I say?Quote:
2 horrible goals given away by Harps, first was a free in, where the linesman flagged for handball and a free out only for the ref to over-rule the lino and award the free in to Bohs for a tackle which happened after the hand ball :mad:
IdiotQuote:
Depressing stuff, looks like Bohs will be without Joxer for a few games though, he was sent off in a handbags incident after the final whistle, straight red.
Though Joxer saw red, that could be a good thing for Bohs....it could keep him on his toes if Rossiter moves across to the right side when young Powell is fit again.....what other options have Bohs to play on the right instead??.....Chris Turner, Jason Byrne, Glenn Cronin, Harpal Singh, Killian Brennan moved over from the left??....an embarrassment of riches there!! :o
Re : handball incident leading to the Bohs opening goal. For defs the Bohs player handled but the ref blew for a free indicating there was a nudge on the Bohs player before he handled. Ever so slight nudge albeit.
Terrible game of football.
Thats for sure, we have got 12 available first team players for friday night (thats including 2 'keepers) Its a massive difference, Bohs can easily lose 3/4 first team players and replace them with class players, the calibre of players ye could bring off the bench last night must be great (we wouldn't even have that if we put 5 first team players on the bench :o )Quote:

Bohs never came out of first gear to be honest but still looked organised enough to get the three points they needed.
Injuries and lack of confidence is decimating Harps.There was an air of inevability about proceedings last night.
Fair play to the Bohs supporters who made the journey midweek.
Not really. The difference between us and Mons playing the ball out of defence was marked. We had no ideas in the final third maybe (though we had three shots off the line), but I've no problems highlighting Mons' poor passing. We hardly had to work to get the ball back most of the time.Quote:

Indeed - can't argue with the result! But as you say, it would have been easier for youz if you hadn't kept insisting on giving us the ball back.
Whats the story with that pub Barretts? Not very friendly. It was empty when we went in and they seemed ****ed off to have customers!Quote:

Last night had the worst atmosphere around FP in a couple of years.
Oh Lordy I am worried about Friday.
Yeah we went into O Malleys after only one in Barretts.Quote:
